Public access is granted for up to 50 days in each year, however, as a rule the number of days granted falls well short of the maximum. Public notices are posted on the Ministry of Defence website and in the local press. Access is usually granted during the Easter and Christmas/New Year periods; also, during August. The military training programme will dictate dates of public access in any one year.
Annual St Gilestide Service
The annual St Gilestide Service is to be held on Saturday 10th October at 1500 hours (3 pm). It is essential that those wishing to attend the service arrive at the Warminster Vedette Post (VP2) no later than 1400 hours (2 pm) for the onward escorted convoy to the church. At the conclusion of the service members of the congregation will be escorted back to Warminster.
Please note. If you arrive at VP2 after 1400hrs (2pm), you will not be allowed access to Imber. Please allow sufficient time to arrive at VP2 by 1400hrs at the very latest.
Warminster will be the only point of entry on this occasion. Due to intensive military training Imber will not be accessible during September.
November Service of Remembrance - LATEST
The annual St Giles service of remembrance will be held on Saturday 7th November. The service will start at 1050hrs to allow for the act of remembrance at 1100hrs.
There will be free access to Imber on 7th November. Arrive from any of your normal access points.
Access to Imber will be allowed from 1800hrs on Friday 6th November to 0800hrs on Monday 9th November.
Times for St Giles Church being open to visitors outside the time of the service of remembrance have to be decided and will be published here nearer the time.
You should note that the published access dates and times can be revised or withdrawn by the MoD at short notice for operational reasons.
Withdrawal of Access
The Ministry of Defence may withdraw access to Imber for operational reasons at short notice. Please check here near to the time you wish to visit as we will post any changes as soon as possible after we are made aware of them. We cannot be held responsible for nugatory travel or accommodation expenses in the event that the MoD refuses access to Imber.
Join the Mailing List to be among the first to be advised of open days, changes to access and other details - see below.

I originally said next week because of the all these weather warnings and then I saw it's 38. Seriously Melbourne, you call that hot! (okay it is kind of hot).
So I'm in if you're still keen. I'm in Kew so between the two of us is Camberwell (I think I went to the Roasted Cafe Bar which was nice) or if you don't drive I could come down your way. Unfortunately us being two newbies we're going to find it difficult to suggest a place
eta i forgot to put a time. i prefer morning but can go anytime.

I think I need to learn how to subscribe to this thread or something because I never check to see if it has been updated.
I hope you all had good Christmas and New Year celebrations.
We went back to Perth for a month (about 2 weeks too long). We had a great time enjoying the beautiful weather so I'm finding it hard to adjust back into this cold. I took DS to the playground yesterday in this t-shirt and shorts with a hat and sunscreen and all the other kids were in jumpers I've got to start checking the weather before we leave the house.
I've spent lots of time planning activities and projects to do this year - so that I stop watching TV during the day - and now I'm just excited to get on with it. Off to try to enrol in swimming lessons now.
Posted 26 February 2013 - 08:55 AM
Looks like its been a while since anyone checked this thread. Hope everyone had a good time over the holidays.
Take care

Microbiological quality of drinking water from dispensers in Italy
Department of Public, Clinical and Preventive Medicine, Second University of Naples, Naples, Italy
BMC Microbiology 2010, 10:19 doi:10.1186/1471-2180-10-19Published: 26 January 2010
Water coolers are popular in office buildings and commercial stores and the quality of this source of drinking water has the potential to cause waterborne outbreaks, especially in sensitive and immunocompromised subjects. The aim of this study was to determine the quality of water plumbed in coolers from commercial stores in comparison with tap water in Italy.
For each sample, microbial parameters and chemical indicators of contamination were evaluated and information about the date of installation, time since last ordinary and extraordinary maintenance of water coolers was collected.
In all samples the chemical parameters (nitrite, ammonium, free active chlorine residual) did not exceed the reference values of the drinking water regulation; the pH value in 86.8% samples of the carbonated waters was lower than the reference limit. The microbiological results indicated that the bacteria count at 22°C and 37°C was higher than the required values in 71% and 81% for the non-carbonated water and in 86% and 88% for the carbonated one, respectively. Enterococcus spp. and Escherichia coli were not detected in any of the water samples. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was found in only one sample of the tap water and in 28.9% and 23.7% of the non-carbonated and carbonated water samples, respectively. No statistically significant differences in bacterial counts at 22°C and 37°C have been found between the non-carbonated and carbonated water from the sampled coolers in relation with the time since the last filter was substituted. The bacteriological quality of tap water was superior to that of non-carbonated and carbonated water from coolers.
The results emphasize the importance of adopting appropriate routinely monitoring system in order to prevent or to diminish the chances of contamination of this water source.

Indiana Group to Oppose Gay Marriage Amendment
An alliance of businesses and human rights groups is launching an effort to defeat passage of an amendment that would write Indiana's ban on same-sex marriage into the state constitution.
A coalition that includes major corporations such as Eli Lilly and Co. and groups such as Indiana Equality Action was scheduled to announce the new organization Wednesday in downtown Indianapolis.
The gay marriage ban is expected to be a top issue in Indiana in 2014 as Republicans controlling the Legislature face a deadline to pass the amendment in order to put it to voters. Lawmakers passed the proposed amendment in 2011, but the bill needed a second vote of approval either this year or next year in order to go to voters. Lawmakers let the issue lie dormant this year while they awaited a U.S. Supreme Court ruling on gay marriage.
Indiana is the latest state to consider adding a gay marriage ban into its constitution. Republicans in Minnesota pushed the issue to the 2012 statewide ballot, where it failed on Election Day. The campaign that formed to defeat the amendment quickly turned its resources to legalizing gay marriage, which became law this month.
North Carolina voters approved a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage in May 2012.
Supporters of the bans say placing them in the constitution makes it harder for future lawmakers to undo laws against same-sex marriages. Critics argue such bans paint states as unfriendly places to do business.
Executives from two of Indiana's largest employers - Indianapolis-based Lilly and Columbus-based engine manufacturer Cummins Inc. - told legislative panels in 2011 that they oppose the amendment because they believe it could damage the state's image and make it harder to recruit new employees.
"We really need to recruit the very best and the very brightest," Lilly executive Rob Smith told The Associated Press on Tuesday. "We think writing this language into the state's highest legal document will provide a barrier to those efforts."

The word is that they'll make 7, 8, and 9 and other films as well!
Disney is paying $4.05 billion to buy Lucasfilm Ltd., the production company behind "Star Wars," from its chairman and founder, George Lucas. It's also making a seventh movie in the "Star Wars" series called "Episode 7," set for release in 2015, with plans to follow it with Episodes 8 and 9 and
one new movie every two or three years.
emphasis mine
This was always Lucas's idea for the SW movies. More like James Bond movies and the movie serials of his youth rather than a complete saga with a beginning and an end.

VOLUNTEER STRUCK: Luke Donald's errant tee shot on the third hole struck a volunteer in the elbow. Sara Clark, a standard bearer, was hit in the left elbow and knocked to the ground near the bunker. She needed an ice pack at the medical tent before she was released. Clark did not return to the course. The USGA said most standard bearers range from 14 to 21 years old.
Donald appeared visibly shook. He made bogey, and then followed that with two bogeys and a double bogey. He shot 42 on the back nine.
"She was in some pain and felt a little bit faint, and I felt a little bit faint, too, watching it," Donald said. "Unfortunately, you never like that to happen, and it was a very tough break for her."
MATSUYAMA QUALIFIES: Hideki Matsuyama of Japan finished at 7-over 267 and tied for the best round of the tournament with a closing 67. He tied for 10th in his first U.S Open, making him an automatic qualifier for next year. He qualified this year in the Japan sectional.
"It was a great experience for me to be able to play a course that was so difficult and the setting was very difficult, too," he said. "But to play well the final day has given me a lot of confidence and I'm looking forward to more experiences like this."
Matsuyama was a two-time winner of the Asia-Pacific Amateur and twice made the cut at the Masters as a teenager. He was No. 1 in the world amateur ranking when he turned pro in April. He already has two wins on the Japan Golf Tour, one as an amateur.
NO DOUBT: Shawn Stefani aced the 17th hole. He's the first player to make a hole-in-one at any of the five U.S. Opens at Merion. He used a 4-iron on the 229-yard hole. Stefani shot a 69 in the final round.
DIVOTS: Ernie Els cursed at a reporter to end his press conference. "I'm out of here," he said. … Amateur Michael Kim faded hard Sunday with a 6-over 76 and was knocked off the final leaderboard. The 19-year-old Kim and his Merion caddie were fan favorites as they worked their way into contention. "I could have stared at that leaderboard for hours on end and wouldn't have stopped. It was pretty cool," he said.

SourceFire Licensing And How To Get License Key for FireSIGHT / Defense Center
I am asked about Cisco Next Generation Security aka FireSIGHT licensing at least once a week. This post will explain the license options for Cisco FirePOWER and what is needed to request demo licenses to enable your demo system. NOTE: This is the current license model as of March 8th 2015.
For those that are not familiar with the new Cisco FirePOWER offering, it is a blend of Content Filtering, Reputation Security, Application Visibility and Controls, Vulnerability Scanning, IPS/IDS, Network and Endpoint Day Zero protection. These features are offered as a dedicated physical or virtual appliance, as a software option ran inside of a X generation ASA or as a Cloud service. For the dedicated appliance, virtual appliance and ASA version, there are three license options. Continue reading
Comparing iOS to Android – Which is more secure?
I have been asked a bunch of times "Which is the more secure mobile platform? Android or iOS?". There are tons of articles on this topic found by searching on Google. Here is my two cents on the topic.
When looking at Apple iOS and Android, both take completely different approaches to security giving pros and cons to each option. Apple is extremely strict with how applications can leverage resources while Android is open source. For example, Apple devices sandbox APPs meaning they can't interact with other APPs. Only "jail broken" phones open up the ability for applications to interact with other resources. So for those thinking its smart to jailbreak your iPhone, just be warned that you are also putting your device at risk for compromise. Continue reading
Cisco Anyconnect 4.0 – Whats New – Why Consider – Free Migrations
Cisco released Anyconnect 4.0 this past November (more on the announcement HERE). Here is a really good video summarizing Anyconnect HERE.
Anyconnect is Cisco's flagship VPN solution providing users access to internal sources from anywhere, on any device regardless of physical location. Anyconnect has many bells and whistles such as "always on" meaning auto-connecting when off network yet turning off when on a trusted network, throttling apps that eat up bandwidth, checking the posture of devices prior to permitting connectivity (anti virus, system updates, etc), security for selective apps and many more. Cisco's old VPN client IPsec is end of life (more HERE) so hopefully those using IPsec have migrated. Continue reading

-Kentucky: Christian County Clerk in Jail for Civil Disobedienceby Dr. D ~ September 3rd, 2015
A county clerk in Kentucky was jailed for refusing to issue licenses for same-sex marriages . Here's the story from USA Today:
Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis, whom U.S. District Court Judge David Bunning has placed in the custody of U.S. marshals ready to take her to Boyd County jail, said through her lawyers that she will not authorize any of her employees to issue licenses in her absence.
"My conscience will not allow it," Davis said earlier to Bunning. "God's moral law convicts me and conflicts with my duties." …
Kim Davis' lawyers called into question whether any licenses issued in her absence would be legal. …
"Her good-faith belief is simply not a viable defense," said (Judge)Bunning, who said he also has deeply held religious beliefs. "Oaths mean things." …
"It's very unjust," said the Rev. Randy Smith of Morehead, Ky., where Kim Davis' office is located. "Religious liberty has been trampled on today."
Response: So it begins, Christians being jailed for civil disobedience; that is, for refusing to compromise their beliefs and faith. Many will say that she was incarcerated for failing to do her job and upholding the law. Some Christian even suggest that it would have been better for her to resign since she can no longer carry out all of her sworn duties.
The change in government policy towards gay marriage will bring about all sorts of unforeseen problems for Christians who want to live their lives according to their beliefs and religious principles. In this case, country clerks have taken an oath of office to support the laws of the land. However, Kim Davis has also committed her life to Christ and Biblical teachings creating a conflict.
In the future, some government offices and positions may be off-limits for Christians who want to live according to their principles and religious beliefs. I wonder if the founders who wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights ever considered this possibility?
We do have examples from our past where Christians refused to abide by the laws of the land that conflicted with their religious convictions. First the Christian abolitionists who operated the underground railroad and later Christian leaders in the civil rights movement who contended against the 'Jim Crow' laws. In those cases, the Christians involved could always appeal to a higher Biblical morality in their efforts which was accepted and supported by a large number of folks in the general American culture.
The current conflict is far different. Many in the current American culture consider the Christians who refuse to change and go along with a progressive understanding of sexual morality as judgmental 'bigots' and 'discriminators.' Christians are still appealing to a higher Biblical morality, but in this generation the culture is not as sympathetic to an appeal to Biblical authority and many in America are far more secular than they were in the past.
Unfortunately for conservative Christians, the First Amendment may not protect them in the future. Certain offices, businesses, and occupations may no longer be viable options for Christians who want to live according to their principles without compromise.
Look for more instances of Christian civil disobedience in the near future. The courts are going to be busy before this is resolved. Unfortunately the First Amendment and freedom of religion may be compromised and reinterpreted in the process. *Top

Adobe Releases Plugin to Help Migrate from Aperture and iPhoto to Lightroom
Adobe has released a plugin it promised a while ago to migrate photo libraries from Apple's soon-to-be-forgotten Aperture and iPhoto apps into its own Lightroom. If you're worried about Apple's switch to its own all-in-one photo app, "Photos," or simply want to ensure similar functionality to that found in Aperture, Lightroom has long been an industry-standard alternative. There are, however, a few notes to keep in mind with regard to migrating from these apps to Lightroom.

Sant Bani School hosting Empty Bowls fund raising event on Sunday
SANBORNTON — Sant Bani School invites community members to attend an Empty Bowls fundraising event on Sunday, February 8, from 2-4 p.m. This event offers a great opportunity for families who are considering Sant Bani for their children to join in our school-wide service project and enjoy a casual reception with current parents, faculty and staff where they can learn more about the School.
Service Learning has been a cornerstone of Sant Bani's program since the School's founding in 1973. Students in all grades are involved in multiple projects throughout the year, and are given opportunities to choose projects they are passionate about. This year's Empty Bowls event is a school-wide project.
K-8 Service Learning Coordinator Jessica Pine explains, "Empty Bowls is a great example of an integrated service learning project, providing an opportunity for student-centered learning and collaboration as students work together to plan and implement the event."
Empty Bowls is an international grassroots effort to fight hunger. This spring, guests will be invited to SBS for a meal of homemade soup and bread. In exchange for a cash donation, guests enjoy a meal together, and then keep a hand-crafted bowl as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world. The money raised will be donated to a local nonprofit organization, chosen by Sant Bani students, that is working to end hunger and food insecurity. Empty Bowl events have taken place across the United States and in at least a dozen other countries to raise and donate many millions of dollars to hunger-fighting organizations.

Singer-songwriter Liz Longley performing at PSU on February 20
PLYMOUTH — Singer-songwriter Liz Longley will perform in Plymouth State University's Silver Center for the Arts: Silver Series on Friday, February 20 at 8 p.m.
Tickets, priced between $15 and $30, are available at the Silver Center.
In the short time since her graduation from Boston's renowned Berklee College of Music, singer-songwriter Liz Longley has assembled an impressive resume. While best known for her stop-you-in-your-tracks voice, Longley has steadily developed a reputation as an accomplished songwriter, crafting intimately personal portraits through her music.
In the past two years, Longley has taken home top prizes at some of the most prestigious songwriting competitions in the country, including the BMI John Lennon Songwriting Scholarship Competition, the International Acoustic Music Awards and the Rocky Mountain Folk Fest Songwriting Competition. New England named her the 2011 Female Performer of the Year, the Washington Post declared that she is "destined for a larger audience" and Dig Boston called her "a rising acoustic sensation." Even John Mayer is a fan, calling her music "gorgeous, simply gorgeous."
A Philadelphia native, Longley recently made the move to Nashville, Tenn. where she has quickly made her presence known throughout Music City. In addition to writing more than forty songs with some of the best songwriters in the business, Longley has also managed to keep up her seemingly never-ending touring schedule, playing over one hundred shows in the last year - all without the help of a record label or booking agent.
While Longley frequently supports the likes of Shawn Colvin, Amos Lee, Paula Cole, Nanci Griffith, Livingston Taylor, Lori McKenna and Colin Hay, something remarkable has begun to happen - audiences are emerging from these shows as fast fans of Longley's music as well. An engaging performer with an effortless stage presence, Longley has broken advance ticket and merchandise sales records at numerous venues across the country.
Most recently, Longley's music has taken center stage on a national level with numerous television placements and radio airplay. ABC's critically acclaimed series NY Med featured Longley's music throughout the first season, and the 2012 season finale of Lifetime's Army Wives displayed her towering vocals in an epic grand finale song, "This Is Not the End." Executives at SiriusXM caught wind of her captivating cover of Van Morrison's hit "Moondance" and added it into regular rotation, along with her award-winning original song, "When You've Got Trouble." After an impressive response from listeners, Longley was invited to perform live in the SiriusXM studios in New York City and was named one of their Coffee House Discoveries of 2011.
Following the success of her previous release, Hot Loose Wire, and an impressive crowdfunding campaign this past summer, Longley recently returned to the studio where she recorded her fourth full-length album which is scheduled to be released by Sugar Hill Records in early 2015.

Late Spring
Though Late Spring comes off as familiar to my initial entry film into Ozu's filmography, which ironically is also his last, the tale of marriage and a woman's hesitation would certainly seem mundane to be experienced the second time round, but Ozu has avoided complete repetition with enough variance from his characters, further refining the characterisation of his archetypes allowing characters to be distinct despite the familiarity. 508 more words

For every celebrity who talks publicly about their split (Kim Kardashhian, Seal, we're looking at you), there's another who you never even realized had been married, let alone divorced.
Click through the slideshow to learn about five celebrities with surprising divorce histories.
Who knew Hollywood's favorite bachelor was actually a husband once? Years before he gained a reputation as a serial dater, George Clooney was married to "Mad Men" actress Talia Balsam from 1989 to 1993. Balsam has been married to "Mad Men" co-star John Slattery since 1998, but don't count on Clooney to follow suit. Balsam herself has said that another marriage isn't likely in the cards for her ex. "You'd have to ask him that, but I doubt it," she told reporters in February 2010. "It doesn't look that way."
Will Smith is celebrating 15 years of marriage to Jada Pinkett-Smith this year, but their union isn't the actor's only marriage. His first, to Sheree Zampino, ended in 1992, after three years and one son, Willard "Trey" Smith III. In 1999, Smith rapped about the split in his song "Just the Two of Us," which he dedicated to Trey: "It didn't work out with me and your mom/But yo, push come to shove/You was conceived in love." Smith, who has two kids with Pinkett-Smith -- Jaden and Willow -- seems to get along fine with his ex. Last July, the whole family came together for Trey's high school graduation.
Jessica Paré made a splash on "Mad Men" as Don Draper's second wife, Megan, but it's a little-known fact that the actress was once married herself. Paré reportedly wed producer Joseph M. Smith in 2007, but in May 2012 she straightforwardly told New York magazine that the marriage was over. "I was married, I'm not married now," she said.
Bradley Cooper has been linked to everyone from Renee Zellwegger to Jennifer Aniston, and most recently, Jennifer Lopez. But for a brief period -- just four months -- Cooper was married to actress Jennifer Esposito. The pair married in late December 2006 but, by May 2007, Us Weekly reported that Esposito had filed for divorce. Cooper opened up to Howard Stern about the short-lived marriage in a March 2011 interview. "It just wasn't right," he said. "It's interesting...things happen!"
"Shameless" star Emmy Rossum split from music executive Justin Siegel in fall 2009 after a year and a half of marriage, but few realized that the two had even wed. Rossum recently discussed the short-lived marriage in an interview with InStyle Hair. "Everyone messes up in relationships and has peaks and valleys in their personal lives," the actress said. "When I realized it wasn't the end of the world and I would keep on standing, I knew it was going to be OK." CORRECTION: A previous version of this slide misspelled Emmy's Rossum's first name as Emme.

Army Tech. Sgt. Ben Kuroki shows off the shattered Plexiglas turret from his 30th mission, a bombing run in 1943 over Muenster, Germany. Courtesy of... View Enlarged Image
The day after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, a young Nebraskan volunteered to fight for his homeland.
After visiting the recruiting office with his brother, Fred, the farm boy waited — but the Army never called.
Ben Kuroki realized the U.S. Army didn't want him, his younger brother or any other Americans whose lineage was from Japan.
Though it wasn't easy for Kuroki to get the opportunity to serve during World War II, once he got his chance, the Nisei (second-generation Japanese-American) would fly 58 missions as a turret gunner, 30 in a B-24 over Europe and North Africa and 28 in a B-29 over the Pacific and Japan.
He also flew in a raid on oilfields and refineries in Ploiesti, Romania, a mission in which 52 of the 178 B-24s didn't return. Also in that WWII attack, 310 fellow Americans were killed and 127 became prisoners of war. All participants were awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, one of three such medals Kuroki would receive, along with the Air Medal with five oak leaf clusters.
Cornhusker State Honors
Decades later, the Nebraska Press Association gave Kuroki its President's Award, which was followed by an honorary doctorate from his alma mater, the University of Nebraska.
The Smithsonian Institution dedicated a permanent display to him at its American History Museum. He also received the Audie Murphy Award — presented to veterans who went beyond the call during their service and, thereafter, became a positive role model for people — and, presented by President Bush in 2005, the Distinguished Service Medal.
Before any of that occurred, Kuroki had to find a way to serve.
"My high school friends were going in right and left. Washington told all the recruiting stations to classify the Japanese-Americans as aliens," Kuroki told IBD. "There was no way they were going to take an alien."
Now 95 and living in Camarillo, Calif., with his wife, Shige, Kuroki said, "I had to fight like hell to fight for my country."
Still out of uniform 71 years ago, Kuroki heard on the radio the new Army Air Corps was taking enlistments in Grand Island, 150 miles from his Hershey, Neb., home.
"I immediately got on the phone and talked to the recruiting sergeant and asked him if nationality was a problem. He said, 'Heck no. I get two bucks for everybody I sign up,'" recalled Kuroki.
Because of his Midwestern roots, Kuroki was immune to President Franklin's Roosevelt's February 1942 order that removed everyone of Japanese descent — numbering 120,000, two-thirds of whom were U.S. citizens — from the West Coast.

"Deceptive, Dishonest and Shady Business Practices!!!"
Beware and stay away! Deceptive, dishonest and shady business practices. I've filed a complaint with the State General Attorneys Office, North America Nissan Consumer Affairs and the DMV. Next is the BBB and small claims court. Have had no response from the General Manager. Please be aware of this business. They will lie to your face!More

"Poor customer service."
It has been 3 months since I bought a new Rogue from Temecula Nissan and the car is GREAT, I wish I could say the same about the dealership. I have been fighting to get money owed to me for returned floor mats and have talked on the phone, live chatted, and exchanged emails with numerous staff but still have not got my money. Everyone agrees they owe the money to me but it seems it needs to get through the "Big Man", a general manager or something. Not a single staff member has ever returned a call or email, they promise they will but they never have.Numerous times I have been transferred to the BIG MAN, he has never answered or returned my calls. Kevin from "Internet Sales" has been the most helpful but he can only send me to someone "with more pull". There is a HUGE turnover of staff, no one I dealt with when I purchased my car is there now. I would imagine if the BIG MAN is this bad with PR he is probable equally bad with dealing with his staff. Buy your car from any other dealer. This one is owned by Pedder so I would imagine Pedder Nissan would be ran the same.More

BEWARE!! DISHONEST SALES TACTICS!! STAY AWAY!! This dealership really needs to reorganize or fire sales/management team & train staff code of moral conduct when doing business. I found my daughter a used vehicle on Temecula Nissan's website and requested an e-web quote in her name from them by email. The quoted email pricing that she received by email was $6998. I proceeded to call dealership & spoke to Ricky Beltran & confirmed vehicle was still available and made appointment to come in and test drive. First bait & switch tactic, vehicle with matching VIN on e-quote email print out was not AUTOMATIC as stated but rather stick shift. After finding out it was a manual salesperson Ricky asks if we were interested in a new car! Surprise Ricky, taught our daughter to drive stick shift so not a problem but bet it was a problem for many of those unknowing potential customers that the dealership just duped as Ricky mentioned that drove hours just to see car. Gave Ricky the emailed e-quote print out which he quickly glanced at and stuffed into a pocket and was supposedly never given to Sales Manager nor finance when deal was structured, second strike on their part. We sat down to discuss purchase of vehicle for advertised price which unknown to us at the time that Ricky never conveyed to sales team or finance?. What made this deal even worse was that we were offering a higher than usual cash deposit plus a trade-in and we never saw any numbers or any offers in writing on paper. All Ricky would come back with was a monthly payment amount which later resulted in a $15 increase with finance. As we began paperwork with Greg in finance once again asked to see how the numbers were calculated as all i could see on screen (We still hadn't seen any numbers or actual offer on paper) total financed was $7737.00 . How could this be possible I asked myself if our total down payment was $3000!?? Not too long after I began asking numbers & calculations, Finance states that his system just froze & that he couldn't complete transaction/paperwork and if my daughter could return the next day to complete. This option didn't work for my daughter as she lives and works in San Diego, CA. Uncomfortable as it was my daughter was asked to sign a blank contract as he assured us that her quoted payment of 225 would not change. I would return the next day to pick up final paperwork and turn in title. To my dismay, purchase price was listed at $8278.00, a difference of almost $1300 from advertised and guaranteed web price that we had received and note that no additional parts or accessories were purchased. The third and final strike that pushed me over the edge and into writing this review. Greg in finance did attempt to make amends by offering my daughter a two year service agreement because of error or deceit? on their part. He would not give me anything in writing to confirm service agreement so we shall have to wait and see if they will be honest and honor this verbal agreement. My daughter loves the car so we left it as is to avoid any problems with financing. Please be very cautious when dealing with this dealership and go with your instincts as I should have but it had been a long day and we were there till after closing. Best of luck to those who decide to not heed these bad reviews.More

"unacceptable service"
I contacted temecula nissan at 10:00am this morning about a vehicle advertised on their website. I wanted numbers on the vehicle if they even had it. Around 1:00 I was notified that they didn't know if they had one but they'd find one. At 2:30 I was told they would be with me in awhile. It's now 3:45 and I've yet to receive any numbers or service in my opinion. It would be laughable if I wasn't so irritated.More

"Bad experience gone good!"
Vince, at Quality Nissan in Temecula, Ca. is the best! We are snowbirds and, upon arriving in sunny California this year, our car would not start and left us "deader than dead" in Temecula! After having to have it towed to Quality Nissan, Vince and the service team got started on the long process of diagnosing the problem. They made sure that we were shuttled up to Menifee and back down to Temecula when it was fixed. Everything was still under warranty and we very thankful as to the care we received. Thank you again Vince and the gang! Penney ThompsonMore

I was seeing him almost after two years. My father had become much weaker than before. When I said hello to him it was then that he saw me sitting in front of the television because he could not see as clearly as he did before. He was shocked seeing me and when I realized both of us were crying with my head on his chest. He held my hands and was kissing them, and he tried to do the same to my feet which I did not let him do.
I was going back home for summer break of 2012 after two years studying at Asian University for Women in Bangladesh. I came to AUW without my father knowing and also I went back without him knowing. At the first place, I was afraid that he won't let me go. When I went to Afghanistan for the vacation, I was still afraid of what will happen and what will he do. But his behavior made me believe he supported me. At least he supported me by not standing on my way and by forgiving me if he has done so. Though, sometimes I think maybe he just doesn't care. Even I thank him for not caring so that I can continue.
My relationship with my father has not been good since our family returned to Afghanistan from Pakistan in 2005, especially since he married another woman in Afghanistan. Sometimes, I do say he 'betrayed' my mother and us though this phrase cannot be considered a correct one to use in Afghanistan for a man. It has always been women's betrayal to men that has been counted, not men's, so I don't really have the right to say this.
After the vacation, I returned to AUW again without telling him. Though, this time it was more difficult than before to not tell him, I did not and also did not want to because to me it was to risk my future and many other women like my mother for whom I think I would be able to do something after I graduate. I think I did the right thing although many people have told me I did wrong.
Take action! This post was submitted in response to Girls Transform the World 2013.
Whatevery you do for the betterment of the world and yourself is right.
IF it were me, I would have done the same.
My mother had 3 daughters for my father, he was a Muslim, my mother told me that my father would always say 'give me these girls school fees so that I can spend it to buy palm wine"
My motehr supported us throughout school. My father died early, in 1976. My mother's only regret is that my fatehr did not live long to see all her daughters graduate. She is very proud of us.
I am proud of you darling sister!!!!!! RIDE ON SIS.

This is so moving. I am lucky to have a great dad, who is very supportive of me and my little sister, and I couldn't express how much it matters to me that he's there for us. So I can only but imagine how my life would have been without his ongoing support.
Even though going away this time without telling him you were going back to university was more difficult, at least it means you had good moments with him and you could see he's considering you. I truly hope he will be thrilled when you graduate and that you will be able to celebrate this time as a family, together.
Congratulations for keeping up with AUW. Wish you all the best for the rest of your studies! How many years do you have left before graduation?
Much love from Europe, Aurore
I am in admiration of your courage and strength of heart. It is very difficult to go against a parent' wishes, especially a father. Your one voice speaks volumes and will have a ripple effect as other young girls witness what may come of getting an education in spite of the many challenges. Your generation are the ones who will stand up for themselves and will effect change transforming the lives of many with your actions.
You inspire me deeply and I hope that one day, your father will see the beauty and strength within you. I know that we all do. Wishing you the very best in your studies. Janice
This is the first thing I opened this morning! AND I am very delighted to see so much support from you all..and so much inspired..Thank you all... And, dear Aurore, I am an undergraduate II student ... two more years to go at AUW... :) Best,
Dear Rabi,
I understand how it might feel to have to lie to your father. Now that my father is gone, he passed away almost 4 years ago, I regret the relationship we could have had but could not because of our inability to agree around certain issues such as education or the role of women in his culture. Unfortunately, we sometimes have to make decisions that feel wrong but are right! Good luck to you! Delphine
Delphine Criscenzo
Sis Rabi, i can imagine you battling with reality of the role of a father, dictates of culture and desires of your own heart. I am so humbled by the wisdom that you had on dealing with the stumbling block, but carefully following your heart. Growing up in a family where boy education was more important and girls valued in the form of pride wealth......i could do a similar thing if an opportunity arose.
This is a wonderful lesson for many girls in similar circumstances--a lesson of taking your space and exercising wisdom so as to achieve what your heart tells you...the right thing for you ! Wishing you well in your studies and life. Regards
EK Chemorion
Then I wish you good luck with your two more years to go at university - enjoy them!! Warmly, Aurore
best of luck. what u have done is really the action of a soldier.May u progress in ur life.
Rabia- I do not presume to know what you went through, and the courage you had and have to live such a life. You are an example of making choices most beneficial for you, no matter the pain or sacrifice.
You will change your world!
Let us Hope together- Michelle aka: Cali gal Listener Sister-Mentor @CaliGalMichelle facebook.com/caligalmichelle Tweets by @CaliGalMich
Dear Rabi, I can understand your feelings, anways dear just do not worry because certain things happen for some reasons. Dear Just do not give up, and I hope you will attain that you have aimed.. Best of Luch! Aaliya, Pakistan
Dear Rabia,
I just want to thank you for sharing this amazing and touching story of your life with all of us. The boldness you have showed through those few lines of your story, i am sure, will motive many other women like us to share our own similar brave and challenging stories with other. I don't know about other but i am inspired for sure. Wish you all the best in the future journey of your life. I am sure the courage that you have showed and hold on to so far will defiantly lead you to your awaited destination.
Love, Roksana.
What courage you have to continue to pursue your dreams despite the lack of support from your father. Your perseverance will serve you well, and I have no doubt amazing opportunities lie ahead for you.
Hi Rabia,
Although you carry the weight of not telling your father, it is important that you follow the path that is going to bring you happiness. The only person who can dictate that is you, so keep pursuing your goals and dreams. Keep looking inside for the love and motivation, and the outside world, including your father, will embrace you the way you need it to.
Best, Amir
Your words show that you are wise and kind as you pioneer this new path for yourself and your Afghani sisters. I can appreciate your inner conflict about not telling your father of your plans, yet sometimes, I believe it is necessary in order to help others see beyond their own point of view and cultural biases. By how happy he was to see you, it is obvious that he loves you very much, and that is very wonderful. I feel that he must be very proud of you even if he cannot say so yet.
Shine on! You are an inspiration.
You are as BOLD as a tigress, dear Rabia! Im so amazed to see you taking this giant decision all by yourself. You did Good, there's just no doubt on that. God always forgives our lies and dilemmas when it's for right decisions. Im proud of you. You truly are an inspiration to us all. :)
Dear Rabia,
Thanks for your inspiring, candid and powerful words. Continue the wonderful expression and courageous action.
Love, Pushpa
